Program - MUSICAL THEATRE & SHOW CHOIR
These programs are presently offered in Forbes only with the hopes of adding extra music and flare to the Forbes community. These classes go hand in hand to provide your children with a wealth of theatrical knowledge and experience. The musical theatre class highlights the acting side of theatre, whilst the show choir focuses on vocal training and performance. Along with our primary and senior drama classes, these provide an extensive acting program that suits children of all ages and experience.
